Visitation

Charleston Visitation Lawyers

Visitation refers to the parenting schedule assigned for the care of your children. After a divorce, you want to be sure that you retain your rights to see your children and protect your interests in the construction of a visitation schedule. At Lyne Ranson Law Offices, PLLC, we are experienced in handling all of the parenting time and visitation concerns for our clients. We will take the time to understand your individualized needs as well as the needs of your children.

Our child visitation lawyers will protect your rights as well as the best interests of your children. We will take the time to find a solution compatible with your family's needs.

Visitation is awarded through a parenting plan schedule that will be filed with the court. If you need to file a parenting plan schedule, our attorneys can help you devise a plan that best suits you and your children's needs. The schedule will determine who has the children on the weekends or, during the summers, or on holidays. Our attorneys will take the time to assess your needs and protect your interest and desires in the parenting plan scheduling.

A parenting plan is established to describe the schedule of time each parent spends with the child. It also describes the standard caretaking and parenting functions as well as day to day care of the child.

Our firm can help prepare a parenting plan as well as ensure that your parental rights are preserved in the creation of the plan.

Legal custody is separate issue from allocation of parenting time, but also must be decided upon in order to establish a parenting plan. For example, one parent must be named custodial parent for state and federal purposes, but the parenting time with each parent could be exactly the same amount. Our attorneys will assist you in protecting both your visitation rights and your interests in custody.

Issues regarding the
relocation of a parent can be skillfully handled by our office and are based upon a number of factors, including the number of overnights each parent spends with a child and the reason for relocating. Some permissible reasons include getting a better job, new educational opportunities, or moving to be with a new spouse.
